VINELAND — After more than a year of delays and work, the Vineland Police Athletic League (PAL) building is finally opening its doors to the public with an open house event scheduled for Saturday.

Residents and youth — who could potentially participate in PAL's activities — will be able to take a tour of the new facility during the event.

Saturday's open house runs from 9 a.m. to noon and a special ceremony is scheduled for 10 a.m.

"It looks really good. The floors are done, but they're in the process of things like moving the boxing ring over from the old place," said Paul Spinelli, city council vice president.

Area youth can sign up for PAL activities on Aug. 30 from 10 a.m. to noon, with the building expected to be fully operational in September. A grand opening ceremony is expected to be announced later this year.

"A lot of thanks goes to Paul because he's our liaison to PAL," said Anthony Fanucci, city council president.

Fanucci also expressed thanks to the Vineland Public Schools district, as well as members of the community for their help in the project.

"We couldn't be able to complete this without them," he said.

The building was previously the Hanger 84 concert venue, but was acquired by PAL in February 2012.
